Should prescription sleep aids be used to cure our lack of sleep?
I think by now we have all heard that prescription sleep aids were a contributing cause in the death of Heath Ledger. Who would have thought that trying to cure your lack of sleep with a tiny pill would be so deadly. I’m sure people will argue that he wasn’t taking them the way he should have but in the end was it the amount he took or the effects that these types of pills played on his mind. It has been shown that prescription sleep aids can have side effects which include depression, sleep walking, sleep eating and severe allergic reactions. Jack Nicholson was quoted saying this to Heath. “I warned him about Ambien. I took it once and somebody called me in the middle of the night and I woke up in my car 50 yards from my house. I almost drove off a cliff. I didn’t know where I was. Ambien can get you. Not through excessive use, it’s just some people react more strongly than others.” I had a friend recently tell me that recently she took a prescription sleep aid and in the morning when she woke up she found an empty box of cereal on her kitchen table. The funny part was that she had just bought the cereal the day before and hadn’t opened yet. Events like this can seem funny but imagine if something really tragic had happened to her when she was sleep walking. So I don’t know about you but I’m going to stay away from these types of sleep aids. The next time my lack of sleep gets to be a problem I’m going to try an Herbal Sleep Aid. |
